Case Report: Extrinsic Compression of the Left Main Coronary Artery by a Giant Sinus of Valsalva Aneurysm

Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm (SoVA) is an uncommon clinical entity, which is present in roughly 0. 09% of the general population. The cause can either be acquired or congenital. Clinically the SoVA of unruptured status are rarely captured or even diagnosed due to atypical clinical presentations. Here,...
